Walmart is going to sell 98¢ reusable bags at checkout carousels to cut down on plastic
The company said on Wednesday the reusable bag initiative will start rolling out next month. Customers are increasingly demanding environmentally friendly products and packaging. Placing the bags at checkout will"increase customer convenience," the company said in a press release. The reusable bags are made out of recycled plastic and will be available for purchase for 98 cents.
New York is poised to become the second state after California to ban single-use plastic bags and the European Parliament has approved a law banning a wide-range of plastic items, such as straws, cotton buds and cutlery, by 2021. Walmart in February pledged to drastically reduce its plastic waste and said it would try to offer 100% recyclable, reusable or industrially compostable packaging for its private brand packaging by 2025.
